21st Century Necromancer

"Mr. Chen Yu, won't there be any problems with us just going on our honeymoon like this?" Hiromi Jounouchi was still a bit worried as she asked Chen Yu on the plane. Ever since she learned about the seriousness of the situation, she had been concerned that things might get out of hand.

However, regarding this question, Chen Yu merely shook his head slightly and comforted her, "Don't worry too much. After all, Naoki and Minami are just two ordinary people, and Naoki lives in Kumamoto while Minami is in Tokyo. If it weren't for our wedding, they wouldn't even have had the chance to meet.

Besides, even if there were something between them, do you think they could make any progress in just the half month of our honeymoon? Minami knows she is a dead person, to make her develop genuine feelings for Naoki, a mere half month is simply not enough. Moreover, there are people from the Metropolitan Police Department watching them 24 hours a day now, it won't be a problem."

"Alright, but I'm still worried! Suzuhime made the consequences sound so severe, what if something really happens..." Hiromi Jounouchi knew what Chen Yu said was true, and the situation indeed wasn't as bad as she thought, but it's the unforeseen that's always the most feared. If things really got out of hand, Hiromi Jounouchi felt it might be better for her to stay in Tokyo.

After all, she had also persuaded Chen Yu to let Minami stay, which made Hiromi Jounouchi feel she also bore some responsibility in this matter. Staying behind at least meant she could help or persuade Minami not to do something irreversible.

"If something does happen, it will be a war of gods." Chen Yu could certainly understand Hiromi Jounouchi's worries, but he didn't think her staying would be of any use, "By then, the ghouls from Meiji Shrine, deities and Buddha enshrined in numerous Shinto Buddhist Temples and Shrines in Tokyo, even the Heavenly Gods from Gao Tianyuan will descend to prevent the invasion of Yomi. One extra person doesn't make a difference, nor does one less."

"But..." Hiromi Jounouchi wanted to argue against Chen Yu's words, but before she could say them, Chen Yu interrupted her.

"Hiromi, you just want to say you could stay in Tokyo to persuade Minami, or in the worst case, send her to reincarnation, but these things can be handled by others too." Chen Yu understood Hiromi Jounouchi's thoughts, but he did not want such matters to affect their honeymoon trip, "I know you feel responsible, thinking you shouldn't leave Tokyo at this time, but what could we do by staying? Watch Minami and Naoki every day? Or just send Minami away directly?

"These matters are being taken care of by others, who are also capable of handling them. If things come to a head, Suzuhime has already rushed back to Kyoto to notify the Inari God. Do you think you're more capable than the deities?

Besides, so far, it's only the Matchmaking God who has said that they are fated. In modern society, dating is easier than eating, and breaking up more common than sleeping together. Do you think, even if they do start dating, there's much chance they'll succeed?

"I understand Naoki's personality. If it comes down to it, I'll stop him directly; he's not someone who cannot be reasoned with. So, Hiromi, now just relax and enjoy your once-in-a-lifetime honeymoon trip!"

"Alright, I'll listen to you then." Persuaded by Chen Yu, Hiromi Jounouchi could only let go of her worries and focus again on her honeymoon trip. Honestly, she didn't want anything to disrupt her honeymoon either.

——————————————————

While Yu Chen and Hiromi Jounouchi were on a plane to their honeymoon trip, the Supernatural Disaster Countermeasures Division in Tokyo was already bustling with activity.

On one hand, they had to coordinate people from the Metropolitan Police Department and the Public Security Intelligence Agency to keep watch over Minami and Naoki Inomata; on the other hand, they had to take care of everything related to the Matchmaking God's food and accommodation in Tokyo.

The surveillance of Minami and Naoki Inomata was easy to handle. Both the Metropolitan Police Department and the Public Security Intelligence Agency were professional in surveillance and tracking, and the individuals they were monitoring were just two ordinary people. Four action teams had them covered around the clock, even tapping into every phone call they made.

And then there were two analysis teams working non-stop all day to analyze the information and intelligence about them and to predict their emotional progress based on their behavior. Although the mission seemed quite odd to these elite agents, everyone was still working diligently under the command from their superiors that this was a matter of national security.

However, the action team from the Supernatural Disaster Countermeasures Division that was responsible for taking care of the Matchmaking God had it much harder.

Since the Matchmaking God hadn't walked the earth in over a hundred years, a lot of her knowledge was still stuck in the Bakumatsu period, bringing a great deal of trouble to those taking care of her, especially since she was a deity, making the action team even more cautious, afraid of anything that might displease her.

Particularly since they couldn't restrict the Matchmaking God's actions, which brought great inconvenience to their work.

Fortunately, the Matchmaking God was not a capricious deity. Other than demanding to be always informed about Minami and Naoki Inomata's condition, her only other request to the so-called caretakers was to eat delicious food.

This request was naturally not difficult for the members of the Supernatural Disaster Countermeasures Division to fulfill. However, to satisfy the appetite of the divine, Tokyo's renowned restaurants found themselves in an unfortunate situation. A police car would pull up in front of their doors, and chefs along with ingredients were carted back to the Metropolitan Police Department; these chefs were required to make meals that would please the deity.

For the chefs, this was probably a first in their lives.

"Mmm, this fish is delicious!" Eating a skillfully cooked piece of pan-fried fish straight from the plate with her chopsticks, the Matchmaking God was very satisfied, "Looks like Western food is also quite good. Though the fish isn't in its freshest state, I'm still very pleased. I want to meet the person who cooked this dish and give them a reward."

"Eh, Your Divine Grace, you wish to meet a mortal?" Hearing the Matchmaking God's request, an officer from the action team hesitated enormously, for according to the rules, ordinary people are not supposed to know about the existence of the supernatural world.

However, deities wouldn't concern themselves with these matters. Matchmaking God tapped a nearby glass with her chopsticks, "Since he has pleased a deity, he ought to be rewarded. As a deity, one must be clear about reward and punishment!"

Seeing this, the officer knew better than to object and went to call the chef who prepared the dish.
